Code submissions have continually suffered from formatting
inconsistencies that constantly have to be addressed. Using
clang-format simplifies this by making code formatting more consistent,
and allows automation of the code formatting so that maintainers can
focus more on the code itself instead of code formatting.
Typedef pointers are unsafe. If you do:
typedef struct bla *bla_t;
then you cannot use it as a constant, such as: const bla_t, because
that constant will be to the pointer itself rather than to the
underlying data. I admit this was a fundamental mistake that must
be corrected.
All typedefs that were pointer types will now have their pointers
removed from the type itself, and the pointers will be used when they
are actually used as variables/parameters/returns instead.
This does not break ABI though, which is pretty nice.
I actually did compile that last commit and misread the failed projects
as 0. I'm just going to put the conversion stuff in video-io.h stuff
because it requires it anyway, and video-scaler.h already depends on
video-io.h for the video_format enum anyway.
Add a scaler interface (defaults to swscale), and if a separate output
wants to use a different scale or format than the default output format,
allow a scaler instance to be created automatically for that output,
which will then receive the new scaled output.
